Rapala Jointed 07 Fishing Lures

I have been using these lures for many years, 9 times out of 10 this is my go to Trout lure, in either the Gold and Black or Silver and Black color and different lengths depending on where I an fishing and the expected size of the fish. These lures are well made ,sturdy, and the hooks are sharp. I would rate it 10/10 for Trout, and it should catch Bass as well. I own several and will buy more.

Looks cool on my fishing pole.

This lure has stood the test of time. I've caught crappie and bass with this lure. The movement on it in the water is excellent and it stays submerged during the entire retrieval period. This is in my top five favorite lures of all time and I have multiple sizes. Love it.

I prefer jointed crankbait while my father swears by solid, but we both run versions of the classic 7 size Rapala as the first thing we tie to our lines. It's just a proven fish getter. I have tried several colors but the basic shad just flat out works- largemouth and smallmouth, as well as the occasional pickerel, perch, even carp will jump on these.Jointed allows me to make a super slow retrieve while still creating a ton of movement in the water. They also work as jerk bait, but float instead of suspend. The finish on all the ones I've owned has been durable even when bounced off rocks and retrieved from trees.They even work as a poor man's trolling bait. I just throw one off the boat then drive barely above idle to let the boat do the cranking. More often than not, I'll get a deep lurker doing that.You just can't argue with success. I keep these in just a couple colors but they've all put fish in my boat.

What's better than a rapala jointed. Nothing

A nice little lure that I've used to catch Bass and Northern in the Boundary Waters Wilderness.

jointed shad catches bass. this is my go to in shallow water. the bass cant resist a fish in distress.

5th cast caught a 3.5 lbs large mouth bass. So far so good.... :)
